Knock On Wood

A classic 1966 Stax Records45 by Eddie Floyd, who was, once, in The Falcons; co-written by Floyd and Steve Cropper. It utilized the "Midnight Hour" beat (good for doing The Jerk, IIRC) and Stax sat on the recording (done in '65) due to that and other similarities. Later covered, sans all subtlety, using a discoSTOMP beat, sound FX, and a singer-for-hire named Amii Stewart. A punk version, from about the same time, lost a lot in the loudFAST translation.
